Published purpose

This project will support the firm to design, develop and validate a one-minute test for the qualitative detection of total SARS-CoV2 antibodies in human fingerstick blood, to be used as a self-test and/or at the point of care. It is anticipated that the test could be used for multiple purposes, including for serosurveillance of populations or as an aid in diagnosis of SARS-CoV2 infection in conjunction with clinical presentation and the results of other tests.
